Well, a beautiful day! Blue sky, sunshine and just about 45 degrees.
Woke up late, after our solstice festivities, but managed to catch up pretty fair and get another book in the mail; Wedo's early childhood mom ordered one for Christmas. And, got a note from another friend, lives in London on a houseboat; she received our first "international priority" envelope, in tact, from the sound and "we're a hit on the Thames!", he said with a smile, quite aware of her extremely generous heart.
Anyway, otherwise, mindin' the dogs and watchin' for rubs. Everythin' went pretty smooth, with the exception of a minor dust up, when Wedo decided to stretch out full length on the dog bed after lunch and Hutzpah couldn't find an inch. She's been fair accomodatin', near as I can tell, but I reckin' he's a little stressed with all the changes he's put up with, past few weeks and well, stuff happens.
Best I could figure was just to rub on her, remind her I care and ignore the youngster a bit; make her feel comfortable another spot on the floor. Seems to have worked, where, after a while, he quietly curled up and left more than half of the bed unoccupied. She watched for a while, then accepted the offer. She's a very smart girl and awful good natured. The Wedo dog, I figure with time he'll relax. There were some fair minutes of romp and play, as I went about feedin' the critters, so, I remain hopeful; I love the pups, but we got a whole operation ta run and we can't, necessary, afford anyone of us, get so important everybody else ends up payin' a price.
Anyway, time for bed! Have a nice night and we'll keep you appraised a de-velopments.
Best,
jeune
One morning you'll wake up, and they'll be all snuggled together, realizing that in each other, they've found warmth. They'll have each other's back too. Anyway, that's my hope. I sure like the picture of them in my head romping and playing. Dogs/critters help me to live in the moment, as I'm always smiling at their abandonment to "enjoy." They can sure be good teachers. Looking forward to more Adventures of Hutzpah and Wedo!
ReplyDeleteRescuing is wonderful for all involved .... it's a good thing to share your home and heart.
Excited to hear about your International success! The Thames ... that's quite wonderful!
Blessings,
Peaceful
And don't forget a book that went to Brittany and another to Buenos Aires! Both very well received.
ReplyDeleteAnd since we're all still here (still) after all the hoo-ha and hype, I'm looking forward to reading about the settling in of the Wedo dog, as la princesse Hutzpah teaches him the ropes around the ranch.
We're looking at a series of rainstorms over the next few days, so you'll likely be seeing snow where you are before long. Happy weekend, Jeune.
